Kaltura Video Extension for Joomla - first release!

it mentions (on the instructions) for self-hosted versions of Kaltura "To configure your extension to use the Kaltura hosted solution or the Kaltura self-hosted solution, go to Components > Kaltura Video and enter your local hosting URL. (The default will be the Kaltura hosted solution 10GB free trial.)"
but I only see the option to fill out the complete form with only the URL present for where your self Hosted address could possible go - how do you set this up for self hosted access?

Hii..

I'm very new to kaltura , and I would like to know whether there is any way I can install kaltura free edition in my own server with joomla and to have the Kaltura control panel and the videos and all the other files uploaded in to my own server.

Please reply.

I'd be interested in the self hosted settings part of the joomla component as well. There seems to be only the option to either load an existing kaltura.org-hosted account or to create one.

Is there a config file to edit, or a DB table into which I can enter the necessary info or are you going to update the component with the necessary configuration fields?

Greetings,

Any chance someone can answer any of the above questions? By default the free trial works and there is no way to configure for community edition as it supposedly says.

I've tried it myself modifying the kaltura_config.php as well as the jos_kaltura_config table, but nothing works.

Does this really work with community edition or is this just a sales tactic?

Hi guys,

Please download the new release with KalturaCE support from the installation settings.

I downloaded the latest version, installed, put in my info for my CE server and it took. When I go and add a video to content, when I click next to select video, it is blank?

After:
1- Uploading
2) Naming and adding tags.... then you get to:
3) Where you pick "Light or Dark" and name the video. Well when selecting "OK' to end the process; it will not advance. You can Click the "ok"I tired it in: Chrome, Firefox and Safari (not IE though).
Does anyone know what is causing this or has anyone else experienced it?

Hi ~

I'm having the exact same issue.

I've installed Kaltura CE on a local development server, and installed the latest Joomla plugin (Joomla ver. 1.5.15) same server.

In Joomla, when I click to add a video, I get the lightbox and first screen to select a size, but when I click next, I get the title in the pop-up, but nothing else. I've tried in IE and Firefox and I'm still getting the same thing.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance!
Nicole

I am facing the same problem. I installed KalturaCE and configures Joomla plugin to connect to the local setup. But after selection video size next page is blank.

I urgently need to evaluate Kaltura and check if it could be used as a video platform. Please help.

Thanks in advance,
Jyoti

Hi, I still see no answer on how to configure the joomla component for working with a self hosted KalturaCE on the same host with the Joomla server.

I've installed kalturaCE and Joomla. When I go to Joomla Kaltura Video COmponent and try to configure it by "Using Kaltura's Community Edition"

I get the following error:

"Missing KS. Session not established"

the parameters entered are:
Kaltura CE URL: http://mykalturahost (as defined during kalturaCE installation)
Kaltura CE Admin Email: template@kaltura.com (the default Admin)
Kaltura CE Password: mypassword

Any advice will be welcome.

PS: Is strange that none of the extensions for the Joomla or Wordpress CMS are working with KalturaCE for me, and no documentation available for it ...like nobody encourages to use the kalturaCE self hosted version.

Anybody tried editing the kaltura_config database?

These default install UIConfs are all wrong for KalturaCE...

INSERT INTO `#__kaltura_config` VALUES('player_regular_light','1011902');
INSERT INTO `#__kaltura_config` VALUES('player_regular_dark','1011912');
INSERT INTO `#__kaltura_config` VALUES('player_regular_light with share','1011932');
INSERT INTO `#__kaltura_config` VALUES('player_regular_dark with share','1011922');
INSERT INTO `#__kaltura_config` VALUES('player_mix_light','1011902');
INSERT INTO `#__kaltura_config` VALUES('player_mix_dark','1011912');
INSERT INTO `#__kaltura_config` VALUES('player_mix_light with share','1011932');
INSERT INTO `#__kaltura_config` VALUES('player_mix_dark with share','1011922');
INSERT INTO `#__kaltura_config` VALUES('server_uri','http://www.kaltura.com');
INSERT INTO `#__kaltura_config` VALUES('editor','1002226');
INSERT INTO `#__kaltura_config` VALUES('uploader_regular','1013682');
INSERT INTO `#__kaltura_config` VALUES('uploader_mix','1013692');

yep in case anybody is wondering just changing these UIConf values in the database did the trick for my client, everything works fine now

well editor could really be the simple or the advanced i guess, depending on what you want to use

as for the uploader values, looks like the component is looking to use the regular one to upload a regular entry with a kshow value of "video" (which i believe is -1) and the mix one probably uses a kshow of "-2" for a mix entry.

I tried changing to those values and now I can't even select a video after selecting screen size (initial screen). Changed them back to what they were and I got to the last screen again, but just the video.
